Answer: Ethiopia
Notes: The tradition of using fermented flour to make dosas in southern India is similar to the way injera is made in Ethiopia. Injera is Ethiopia's national dish. Both injera and dosas are fermented and baked in an open stove.
Injera is made from teff flour, water, and starter, which is a fluid collected from a previously fermented mix. The starter goes through successive fermentations. Injera is a thin bread similar to a pancake. It is a staple food for most people in Ethiopia, Eritrea, Somalia, and Yemen.
